Event Overview
During a training flight, the student was conducting his fourth landing. The aircraft bounced upon touchdown, and the instructor yanked the control stick. The student reported that he was previously told to release the stick when it was yanked by the instructor. In this instance, the student released the stick, and the instructor took control. The instructor reportedly said, "give me the stick."
Instructor Actions
The instructor applied full power after the bounce and continued down the runway for about two-thirds of its length with a slightly nose-high attitude. The student observed the airspeed at 50 KIAS. Subsequently, the nose pitched upward, the airplane stalled, the right wing dropped, and the nose impacted the ground.
Instructor's Account
The instructor reported that the student bounced the landing and applied full aft control. The instructor called out "my controls," but the control stick remained in the full aft position. The instructor then attempted to fly the aircraft using throttle and rudder only.
Inspection Findings
An inspection of the elevator control system revealed no anomalies.
